商业伦理的追求与迷失——从商业伦理视角看《威尼斯商人》和《黑暗的心》

On-the-way or Off-the-way to Business Ethics——Analyzing The Merchant of Venice and Heart of Darkness from Business Ethics Perspective

《威尼斯商人》和《黑暗的心》两部作品虽然所处时代不同,创作者不同,但都记录了英国的一段特殊的历史,反映出整个英国社会的商业伦理状况。不仅如此,两部作品自始至终承担着启蒙教化社会的功能,对资本主义发展过程中的行为进行反省,在人、社会、环境的关系中做出自己的伦理选择。

Although The Merchant of Venice and Heart of Darkness are written by different authors at different times,they both record a special period of British history and reflect the business ethics of the whole British society.Not only that,the two works all along assume the function of enlightening the society,reflecting on the behaviors in the development of capitalism,and making their own ethical choices in the relationship between people,society and environment.
